No! Unfortunately I am in Alberta with the closest border being 6 hours away. Thank you for the offer of information anyhow.

Quick run down of my dilemma..... Partner was just granted PR last week, he has been in Canada with me for 18 months. His auto insurer (GEICO) found out and dropped him yesterday. My auto insurance company cannot cover him legally till he formally 'imports' his vehicle at the border. We had...

That is great news!! Yay. About the spreadsheet - I have not updated it yet as I have only received DM on ECAS thus far. I will update when I get further information.

Great sleuthing, Knowledge101! So are you saying that a DM on ECAS means that the CoPR is mailed? Or are we still waiting for a change in MyCIC? Seriously crossing my fingers for confirmation by the end of jan as that would be an ideal time for us to head to the border. Going to the border is...

I was wondering the same. Glad to see you know what's going on. I feel clueless.

Great questions. I have wondered about this too but have not been even close to mentally prepared to tackle it. Currently trying to tackle car insurance issues since my partner just got dropped (due to being here) and we still have to use his car to drive to the border to import it.

Same here. Still no change on CIC. Just on ECAS.

Congrats! I am very happy to see this!

So no official letter for you yet?

That's convenient. 6 hr drive for me! Wish we could just drive to an airport instead. Haha

When I read this I read it in Jerry Seinfeld's voice. Lol. "What's the deal with unnecessary calls...?" Lol lol.

Haha Just when we thought our days of consistently checking of CIC was over....LOL "PSYCH!"

Thank you for all the 'investigating" I am just hoping to see a letter before the end of the month as we have to "plan" to go to the border (book time off work, arrange for kids...blah blah blah) I may be cutting it close by wanting it by the end of the month. We'll see. Thanks again.

I am with you on this! I just assumed that when CIC is updated that is when the letter is sent. Hence, why I am so excited to see CIC change. Haha Thank you for the research about what "DM" actually means on ECAS vs. CIC.

For sure. I'll be updating on this thread.

Hello, Just so I am correct - you ARE sponsoring your partner AND his kids. Right? And the kids DID NOT get medicals done? Just trying to help you. Why were the kids excluded from having medicals done? Be optimistic. Tons of positive DMs from Ottawa right now!

Still waiting for CIC to update since DM on ECAS Jan 12. ::) Anyone else?

Maybe I'm interpreting this wrong but I took it that you were supposed to be cohabitating continuously for at least a year before applying. My partner arrived in Canada Aug 3/15 and we opened a joint bank account the next day so to prove that we had been living together for 12 months. We applied...

Seems like everything took longer in Dec so hopefully sooner. Would like to "land" the last week of Jan. So freaking happy for you. *doing happy dance*
